Last month, Prevention magazine listed six “weird things” that make you happy and No. 6 is reading the newspaper. On Monday, New York Times media columnist David Carr tweeted a link to the story, saying “Read it and don't weep.”

The Prevention article suggests that reading a print newspaper is a key to happiness—it suggests subscribing to your local paper—but the study doesn’t specifically mention print. University of Maryland researchers found that “self-described very happy people were more socially active, attended more religious services, voted more and read more newspapers.” It doesn’t specify whether it’s print.

So you might see a boost in your attitude if you scan the Times’ online edition. Good thing, too—more than half of the Gray Lady’s circulation stems from its website and mobile apps, according to the most recent report from the Audit Bureau of Circulation.
